Re: One Strike- You're Out!
Good one Lori...maybe we can all go through our phone books and come up with a series of "the other ..." (same name but different person). Boaz, did you say THE OFFICE? and I was so looking forward to that one.

Interview the strikers... I knew nothing about this!! As a dedicated Sci Fi fan I would like to see some interviews that fit into that category (ignore me if you wish, see if I care, where did I put my voodoo doll of Boaz?)

sbevis, Ted gave you the exact link. You shouldn't have to search.

Re: One Strike- You're Out!
Let me restate. I initially tried to find the interview for SuBe because I remembered watching it. I couldn't find it, having forgot that it was on a different site. Then Ted posted the link, at which point I thanked him. That was wasn't made very clear in the original exchange. I thought you all could read my mind.

Strikes are a tough time for all involved. I've been on strike. It got me what I enjoy today, which is being able to work for 30 years and have a nice retirement. If we had never walked the picket line for 82 days in 1970, I would still be working until I would be 67 years old. "You can never regain what you lose in a strike!", I've heard, but you also can get stuff you never thought would be possible too!

Correct Dave so long as strikes are used as an absolute last resort. There was a time when our union was run by militants and they wanted us out at the drop of a hat. They were voted out in the end and we now have a more moderate union who use debate and alternative methods to achieve our rights. It was by dialog alone that we secured and kept our right to retire from the government at 60 and not 65. (Thats just for us oldies though). Ahh 7 years to go Sooner if I'm lucky!

Wouldn't THAT be fun?? Yeah, I heard about this one, too. Why do they all go out together?

One Strike- You're Out!
I don't know who came up with this three strikes you're out business, but all it takes is one writer's strike to halt dozens of television shows. Instead of huddling over a laptop in a cramped writer's room, TV writers across the country are...

Because one strike isn't enough...
I'm planning a NY trip to film some more segments for Backstage Live, and I was hoping we might be able to go backstage at some Broadway shows. Then I remembered that the Broadway stagehands are all on strike... There are a few shows still open,...
